Product description

sketch is a unique meeting place in the centre of London created by Mourad Mazouz and Pierre Gagnaire. The converted 18th-century building in Mayfair is an opulent, zany maze with treasures to be discovered in every room. A mad hatter's fantasy comes alive in the enchanted woodland Glade tearoom. Eccentric tasty tricks abound in the Parlour patisserie. Eat your fill of gorgeous flavours in the Gallery bistro art installation. Chic pre-dinner cocktails in the urbane East Bar prepare you for the Michelin magic unleashed in the vibrant Lecture Room & Library. Whether you want a tearoom, bistro, restaurant, bar or nightclub, sketch has the best to offer. Now these myriad food, drink and entertainment styles are captured in a book - the phantasmagoric compendium of all things sketch. Unique cuisine is at its heart, world-renowned three-Michelin-star chef Pierre Gagnaire showcases the best 85 recipes from sketch's kaleidoscopic menus. Interlaced throughout are artistic interpretations of the recipes, contributed by an array of people involved in all elements of sketch, ultimately creating a sensual feast in a book.
